Chapter 487 Leaving The Monster Zone
From MC\'s perspective:
"Lightning finger technique," I muttered. A purple beam released from the finger and shot at the monster\'s wings at breakneck speed.
If anyone looks from outside, they can witness a straight purple line.
The lightning beam pierces through the monster\'s wing.
Screech~
The deadly vulture let out a scream in pain. But its momentum did not slow down. It reached the prey and launched heavy attacks using its claw.
Meanwhile, my senses alarmed me of a great danger. I instinctively used the lightning phantom technique to move away from the spot.
Boom~
Monstrous claw landed on the ground just before I moved from the spot. But the collision force swept me away.
The power from the class-5 monster can be clearly seen from this attack. The nearby trees were completely uprooted. Several deep cracks were formed on the ground.
Meanwhile, I found the monster through my perception. It\'s using its eyes to search for me.
Cough!
I coughed up some blood. Seeing the trace of blood in my palm. A hint of surprise flashes in my eyes. As I had guessed before, the monster is absolutely the peak one.
Such brute force can injure me. My expression becomes dignified. My essence power is not enough.
At this rate, I can only release a few lightning techniques. My mind races up fast. I decided to find the nearest teleportation point before I ran out of the reserve.
Behind me the deadly vulture acted up again. Realizing that I used the lightning phantom technique.
Screech!
The deadly vulture spotted the purple arcs. It flapped its giant wings to fly.
The chase continued for a few minutes before I spotted the teleportation point. After entering inside the teleportation point. I wasted no time in activating the server.
Swish!
I disappeared from the spot. The deadly vulture collided with a barrier right after that.
When I appeared back inside the teleportation tower. I was completely worn out. Hardly any lightning essence left in my body.
Phew!
I took a deep breath before I walked out from the tower. While heading towards my room. I still can\'t get out of the picture of a deadly vulture from my head.
That monster was tenacious even after getting hit from the lightning attacks. It was completely different from the Falcon monster.
A 10 minutes later,
Before I realized, I had already arrived in front of my room. After waking into the room, I lie down in my bed. I\'m not in any condition to move around.
Though I didn\'t get attacked directly from the monster. But continuous movements had taken a toll on my body.
Meanwhile, the academy was discussing Brandon Hurst. Everyone was looking forward to the next duel.
After the flame faction\'s failure, nobody was sure about the metal faction.
Time went by,
I woke up after a few hours. My mind is a lot clearer now. I got up from the bed and headed towards the shower.
I almost forgot about sweating. After a few minutes, I walked out of the bath. The cold shower made me even more refreshed.
Then after changing into casual clothes. I sat down comfortably. When I looked inside. I found my dantian completely dry without purple essence.
I wrinkled my eyebrows in displeasure. It took me a great deal of effort to cultivate the lightning essence but it was all gone after a few lightning attacks.
After pushing down these thoughts. I shifted my attention toward body cultivation. Fortunately, I was able to slay the falcon monster.
The Class-4 monster core will help me further to raise my level. Due to the availability of monster cores, I can reach the peak elite in body strength sooner than expected.
After gaining some clarity, I decided not to slow down the body cultivation just because I was one step slower in essence cultivation.
Fighting against the deadly vulture, I have realized one thing. If I were to have peak elite level body strength, then I had the good chance of killing the deadly vulture.
But I was desperately setting my mind on the lightning cultivation. Since the dean has promised me to find a suitable lighting cultivation spot.
I should wait for her words before unnecessarily worrying about the lack of lightning cultivation environment.
Beep~
When I was lost in thoughts. I received a call from the dean, Rebecca. My eyes lit up with surprise. I just thought about her. But she contacted me right away.
Is it a coincidence or what? I feel she is keeping an eye on me. My mouth curves into arc after realizing this.
Then I recovered my expression back to normal before attending the call.
Dean Rebecca: Zack, are you back?
Hearing the voice, I\'m certain that she is keeping an eye on me. After the surprise, I replied,"Yeah, dean. I came back a few hours ago."
After that there was some silence. I felt something in my heart. She won\'t call me for nothing.
Dean Rebecca: Did you hear the news?
Then I heard her voice after a few seconds.
I asked,"What news?"
Dean Rebecca: Someone from the metal faction has issued a challenge against you. The warrior is similar to Tyler Lane. But his fighting experience is far more than Tyler Lane.
My eyes gleamed with twinkle. Again? I had expected this to happen. But the challenge came sooner than I had expected.
It was obvious that warriors from other factions also wanted to fight me. But I\'m glad no super elite warrior challenged me.
Dean Rebecca: Zack? Are you there?
I replied,"Ahem, dean. I\'m severely lacking in lightning cultivation. These constant duels only hinder my cultivation time."
I\'m not exaggerating the situation. But this is the fact. Without the purple essence, I can\'t fight against the monster.
And these people only know I\'m an essence cultivator not a body cultivator.
Dean Rebecca asked,"How bad is your situation?"
"Don\'t worry about the cultivation. I already found a few places. Which could help you," She added further.
A quick glint flashes in his eyes. After a long time, I heard some positive news from her. I was worried earlier.
But the Tier-6 region was not as bad as I had thought. Then I spoke to her about my situation and my fight against the Class-4 & Class-5 Monsters.
Dean Rebecca said,"So you are not in any condition to duel against the warrior. Alright, then I\'ll give you the coordinates of a few places where you can find a lightning environment."
"You can accept the duel after cultivating your lightning essence."
After saying that she ended the call.
"Finally, I can cultivate the lightning power," I mumbled under my breath. Then my attention shifted back to the challenge post.
I should check out the social media site. I bet these people have already started to trend about the challenge duel.
When I opened the site, The first thing that caught my attention was the person\'s image. "Brandon Hurst," I read the name under the post.
So this guy is the warrior from the metal faction. He looks similar to Tyler Lane. After memorizing the image, I began to read the detailed post.
The challenge post was direct. But he didn\'t mention any time and place. So they are expecting my reply. They want me to fix the time and place for the duel.
Shaking my head, I pushed down these thoughts. Like the dean said, I should get ready to visit the place. As long as I stay in the academy, these people would pester me regarding the duel post.
After gaining some clarity, I decided to cultivate. I entered the isolated training room and sat cross-legged on the ground.
Then I took the Class-4 Monster core of the falcon and held it in my palm. Slowly, I began to recite the blood element method in my mind.
Right after the bloody rune in my consciousness started to flicker. I slowly began to absorb the energy from the monster core.
When the energy entered my body. I waited for the blood light to appear. After a few seconds, the red blood light appears above the blood to absorb the energy.
The red blood light began to convert absorbed energies into white energies. These white energies then slowly began to drill into my bones.
The next moment, I felt heart wrenching pain. But my senses become numb all of a sudden. Because, at this point of time. I almost got used to this pain.
The red part of my bones began to expand further. After a few minutes, the red color stopped expanding.
My bones become a lot more strengthened. Feeling the rise in strength, my eyes gleamed with twinkle.
Then I continue to repeat the process. The Class-4 Monster Core still has remaining energy. It would take some time to completely absorb everything.
Time went by,
After a few hours, I opened my eyes. The monster core crumbles into pieces. My body strength has risen one step further.
Then I got up from the ground and walked out of the training room. Looking at the sweat all over my skin, I decided to take a bath again.
